From our base in Warkworth, it’s a fairly easy walk down to the sea at Amble. Amble is a town that lies on the southern side of the Coquet estuary and has a long pier that terminates in a small lighthouse/beacon and looks out to the larger lighthouse on Coquet Island. There are always large numbers of fishing boats moored up along the jetty, and markets are regularly held on the quayside.

Today we took a gentle walk into Amble, photographing the boats and various sections of the jetty. There were also plenty of Eider ducks on the Coquet.
